TheVolkswagen Type 4is a mid-sized car manufactured and marketed byVolkswagenof Germany from 1968 to 1974 in two-door and four-doorsedanas well as two-doorstation wagonbody styles. The Type 4 evolved through two generations, the411(1968–72) and412series (1972–74).

Designed under the direction ofHeinrich Nordhoffand introduced at theParis Motor Showin October 1968,[2]the 411 was Volkswagen's largest passenger vehicle with the company's largest engine – with styling credited toCarozzeria Pininfarina, who at the time had an advisory contract with Volkswagen.[3]The cars retained VW's trademarkair-cooled,rear placement, rear-wheel drive,boxer enginewith a front/rear weight distribution of 45/55%[3]and a forward cargo storage 400l (14.1cuft)[4]— while also introducing design and engineering departures for the company – including a completely flat passenger area floor and suspension using control arms andMacPherson struts. Volkswagen had prototyped anotchbacksedan version of the 411, without introducing it to production.

Over its six-year production run, Volkswagen manufactured 367,728 Type 4 models, compared with 210,082 of the subsequentVolkswagen K70with its four-year model life. In the United States, VW sold 117,110 Type 4s from 1971 to July 1974. As Volkswagen's lastair-cooledsedans and wagons, the Type 4 models were succeeded by the first generationPassat, marketed as theDasherin the USA.
